  • Slim 2 ft white cable fits tight routing spaces

Purpose & Audience

This Nippon Labs Cat8 patch cord is a 2 ft U/FTP slim cable rated for 2000 MHz bandwidth and up to 40Gbps data rates. It suits installers who need a short, high-frequency link for emerging 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T equipment in tight rack or desk spaces.

Compatibility Check

Verify that both endpoints use standard RJ45 ports and support Cat8 signalling; the cord is backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A and Cat7 hardware. Confirm the 2 ft length reaches between your devices without tension, and that 30 AWG stranded conductors meet any local fire-code requirements for CM PVC jacketed cable.

Build & Daily Use

Each of the four twisted pairs is individually foil shielded under an overall CM PVC jacket, with 50 µm gold-plated contacts on the RJ45 plugs. A molded snagless strain relief and soft flex push tab make repeated insertion and removal smooth, while the slim 30 AWG profile eases routing through crowded cable trays or around corners.

Questions about this item

Does the 2 ft cable come with any extra hardware or do I need to buy clips separately?

Only the cable with its two RJ45 plugs is supplied; mounting clips or ties are not included.

Should I pick the 30 AWG slim version or a thicker gauge for a 40 Gbps link?

The 30 AWG stranded copper conductors are rated for the full 40 Gbps at 2 GHz, so the slim build is sufficient.

Will the 2000 MHz rating actually deliver 40 Gbps through my switch and NIC?

The cable supports up to 40 Gbps at 2 GHz; actual throughput depends on the connected ports also negotiating 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T.
